Improved Arc Performance

It's easier to fine-tune the arc on the new Trailblazer to match your personal preferences and welding style — and make high-quality welds across a variety of applications and welding processes.

Unbeatable arc performance

Quality welds begin with a quality arc — so we gave the new Trailblazer better arc performance than ever before. Increased amperage output, infinite arc control and automatic settings that simplify common arc adjustments.

Stick (three modes)

Infinite arc control minimizes spatter and stickiness, provides better fine-tuning of the arc when welding out of position and individualizes arc performance based on job requirements or individual preferences.

Wire (two modes)

Infinite arc control (Solid Wire) provides less spatter, better bead profiles, easy arc starting and greater adaptation to various metals, and individualizes arc performance for those who prefer a wetter puddle and better forgiveness.

TIG (three modes)

Auto-Stop allows full control on pipe welds with short or long arc lengths and is ideal for "walking the cup."

Auto-Crater (most DC TIG applications). Ramps down current at the end of the weld to "crater-out" without use of a remote control.

Pulse mode provides longer tungsten life and improved performance with stainless steel. It also makes thinner metals easier to weld and reduces warping and distortion.
